How to? Transparent image in VB

[trisLOGIC]

What is the best way to include an image control with a image that has the background blend to the form background as the image move across the screen ? The background of the form is an image.

And is there a way to have words printed on form with a large picture as background ? Somesort like a transparent label control. I can't use the print currentx and y because it will create a word which hide behind the picture.

Thx.

I'm sorry gees...

But how about the other problem. Transparent image in VB.

About the words over your background picture: I belive that labels have a property that makes their background transparent. It's uhh BackStyle if I remember correctly. It has two settings: Opaque, and Transparent.

I hope this helps, Good Luck.

Label does this because it's not an wnd, draws directly on the form. You could change the region of whatever control you're using with some api calls. It will make it as transparent as clicking on the transparent section will cause click to the form.
